Keeping your valuable data secure is a top priority at Backupify and at the core of how we build out product.

SOC 2 Type II audited

Backupify has completed a SOC 2 Type II audit against the AICPA Service Organization Control Trust Services Principles, Criteria, and Illustrations for security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy. The audit firm concluded that controls were suitably designed and operating effectively to provide reasonable assurance that control objectives would be achieved.

Backupify is self-certified in compliance with the US Department of Commerce Safe Harbor program. We maintain and enforce privacy practices that comply with the EU Privacy Directive on the protection of customer data. We have controls to give notice to customers when collecting personal data, allow customers to access and update their own information, and provide adequate
security around all personally identifiable information.

Internal controls

Backupify grants access to stored data internally using the principle of least privilege through appropriate roles and only on a need-to-know basis, and manages its systems in line with security industry best practices, including the ISO 27000 series and NIST Security Publications.
